Nelly - Just a Dream
I was hearing this song on the radio for quite some time and of course it was only natural that it was the song on my last-song-syndrome and I had downloaded this on Limewire and was really enjoying this tune. Nelly did another great job singing this music and …
Faith Hill
We like country music and we like to go to live concerts whenever we can. We saw Faith Hill perform around three years ago at the MCI Center in Washington, DC. We don’t mind traveling to Washington, because it is only around forty five minutes from Baltimore. …
The Flaming Lips - Oh, My Pregnant Head (Song)
Oh, My Pregnant Head is a song by The Flaming Lips which appears on their album Transmissions From The Satellite Heart. Opening up in a very melodic fashion, the vocals don’t take very long to kick in with the rest of the band. What I particularly like about this …
Jimmy Buffett in general
I don’t know why, but I am a HUGE Jimmy Buffett fan. I never can spell his name right though; I’m an awful fan. I love what he brings to music; the idea that music should be fun and an escape from life. I really wish I could just …

David Guetta feat Neyo and Akon - Play Hard (song)
“Play Hard” is a song by David Guetta on his album “Nothing but the Beat 2.0″. The album is fairly new being released less than 2 months ago and already there is a billion different remixes of it because artists these days milk the general public of everything they …
Green Day - Only Of You (Song)
Only Of You is a song by Green Day which appears on their debut album, 1039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours. The track opens up with all of the instruments wasting no time and starting up right away with Armstrong’s guitar leading the sound with the traditional power-chord riffs which you …
Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
What do you guys think of Back To Black by Amy Winehouse? As for me personally, I think that album by Amy this time round is kind of better. But only if she could change her image for a bit, to make it better or some sort, it …
Album : Eddie Spaghetti - Sundowner (2011)
Though my affection to country music is quite minimal, there has always been a few artists that sprout up and hold my attention in the genre. Johnny Cash is one, Paul Thorn is another and recently ex Hootie & The Blowfish vocalist Darius Rucker released a great country tinged …
Pearl Jam - Gonna See My Friend (song)
“Gonna See My Friend” is the opening track on Pearl Jam’s album “Backspacer”. Like the album itself, the song is relatively short. The entire album was inspired by pop and new wave music. I can sort of see that influence in this song, it’s rather catchy but I would …
Samsung YEPP MP3 Player
There are three things I love in this world, it’s art, clothes, an music! My ears love to hear the sound of music; the slightest beat just send tingles down my heart! I was last months that I realized that I needed a new mp3 player for my former …
Album: Sabaton - Attero Dominatus
Sabaton’s first alnum Primo Victoria has stroken me as really good, although not at all original, when I finally saw the seond album in the store, I didn’t even think twice before taking my wallet out.
The Artwork looks really nice, but I’m not the kind of a man that …
Lonesome Crowded West, 1997 Album by Modest Mouse
I think that this is not a very good full length album for a band like Modest Mouse. I remember how I first started listening to it after I listened to their first full length album, and I did not enjoy this record at all. It was because I …
Bob Dylan - Desolation Row (Song)
Desolation Row, the final song to appear on Bob Dylan’s record Highway 61 Revisited is a track which I consider to be a perfect ending for one of the greatest records that I’ve ever had the privilege to listen to. As if you thought some of the other tracks …
Brad Maule: Living it Up CD
The reason I know Brad Maule is from his role on the daytime soap opera, General Hospital, where he played Doctor Tony Jones. As a result of that role, I met him a couple of times at events and thought he was a nice guy. He sang …
Marvin Gaye
Marvin Gaye is a legend that is a known fact around the world I believe. So anything I say after that may just be reconfirmation of what’s in the hearts of his millions of fans. The man is great. My favorite Marvin Gaye song is Trouble Man, as …
Fergie - M.I.L.F. $
I’ve never been a huge fan of Fergie nor the Black Eyed Peas, don’t get me wrong I liked a few of their tracks like “Where Is The Love?” and Fergie’s solo carrier has some nice parts as well such as “A Little Party Never Killed Nobody (All We Got)“ …
Vampire Weekend - Mansard Roof (Song)
Mansard Roof is the opening track of Vampire Weekend’s self-titled debut record. The song opens up with a definitive rhythm and catchy vocal melody before gradually building up until it really picks up around thirty seconds in and establishes a driving rhythm. What I particularly like about Mansard Roof, …

Green Day - Warning
Overview —“ Warning, Green Day’s sixth album, really has quite a different sound than what I was expecting it to have and definitely not in a good way. The band seems to try and merge their electric and acoustic influences on this album, but unlike on past works where …
Metallica - Nothing Else Matters (Music Video)
Overview —“ Nothing Else Matters, another music video released by Metallica in support of The Black Album, takes the viewer inside to get a look at the recording of the song and of The Black Album. This is just my opinion, but the order that Metallica was releasing music …
Between The Buried and Me: The Parallax Part 2: Future Sequence
Between the Buried and Me (BTBAM) is a progressive metalcore band. Yeah that’s right, that —˜shouty angry’ music your dad really hates, but with more spice and flavour. To someone not used to this sort of music I can see it being a challenge to listen to, with dissonance, …
Green Day - Walking Contradiction (Music Video)
Overview —“ Walking Contradiction, the fourth music video released by Green Day for their album Insomniac shows the band in yet another hilarious music video. The music video for Walking Contradiction sort of reminds me of the music video for When I Come Around because both of the music …
Tell me I was dreaming by Travis Trit
Tell me I was dreaming is a love ballad by Travis Tritt. It is the type of song that typically brings tears to most of us. The video is not what I expected the first time I heard the song and then watched the video. It was a unique …
Ain’t Goin’ Down ‘Til the Sun Comes Up by Garth Brooks
Garth Brooks put together a couple of party songs during his career. Ain’t Goin’ Down ‘Til the Sun Comes Up is one of them. Partying in the country generally means that you aren’t going to stop until you see daylight. You may not even stop then. That is what …
A R Rahman
A R Rahman bagged two Oscars this year for his music in Slumdog Millionaire. He is one of the best musicians from India. I am listening to Rahman’s music since my childhood and have a full collection of his recording in my computer and ipod.
He is the best because …
Complete Me Deluxe Edition Album by FrankMusik
I’ve been a fan since I first heard Frankmusik’s break-out single “3 little words” at Last.fm. I couldn’t get enough of Frankmusik’s eclectic light and heady out-of-this-world pop melodies. There was so much anticipation for this album, his first one yet. It’s just too much auditory …
4-2-10 Awake Tonight tour (TobyMac, Skillet, House of Heroes)
The first band, House of Heroes, played a very short set (only 4 songs) and didn’t seem to catch the crowd’s attention very well. They had an energetic show, just not a lot of stage presence. I had done my homework and learned the words to some of the …
AT&T Presents Stormy Weather CD
The AT&T Presents Stormy Weather CD is taken from a 1998 concert that was a benefit for the Walden Woods Project and the Thoreau Institute. The performers are all environmental activist to a degree. It’s certainly an interesting mix.
The CD leads off with Gwen Stefani singing Almost Blue. …
Pink Floyd - Meddle
Overview - Meddle, Pink Floyd’s fifth effort, is a record that I’d have to say is pretty much average at best. The record starts very strong and ends very strong, but the work in between is honestly just mediocre in my opinion. It isn’t that the songs are bad, …
Music Video of Love Game by Lady Gaga
Love game is the third single of the album “The Fame” by Lady Gaga. It is an electropop song that is very successful in charts.
The music video is so scandalous that some channels banned it. I think this video is so amazing and joyful. I can feel the inspiration …

Artist: Mase ft. Total
Video: “What You Want”
Album: Harlem World
Director: Joseph Kahn
The music video for “What You Want” begins with Mase juggling phone calls from his roster of girlfriends whom all don’t know about each other, sort of taking a page from the film “Def Jam’s How to Be A …
Killswitch Engage
This is the band’s debut album, released in 2000 of Ferret Records and produced by drummer Adam Dutkiewicz. The album is a really impressive debt from the band, several of the songs Temple From Within, Without A Name, and Vida Infra appear on the bands future album Alive Or …
Edwin McCain Songs
I have been married for 4 years now and before that was engaged for nine long years to the same man. All those years, some songs became a part of our love story. Most of these songs are just so amazing it speaks straight to the heart. Among …
Elvis Presley: Back In Memphis
Released in November of 1970, Elvis Presley’s Back In Memphis is just another example of great rock and roll at a great time in history. This ten track album has songs everyone has heard, and no one can get tired of. Though it doesn’t boast some of his most …
The Flaming Lips - Mountain Side (Song)
Mountain Side is a song by the Flaming Lips and is the ninth song on their fourth studio album, In A Priest Driven Ambulance. Returning to a more distorted and aggressive sound than the preceding track on the album, Mountain side opens up with a driving rhythm due to …
Only by the Night, by Kings of Leon
I wasn’t anticipating much from the Tennessee band the Kings of Leon when I foremost heard they were releasing a fresh album, and this is mostly since they haven’t done something major (in my view) like Aha Shake Heartbreak. Their final album, Because of the Times, did okay with the …
50 cent : Get Rich Or Die Trying cd
50 cent is a Rap star who is signed to Eminem and Dr. Dre on Aftermath Records and he has given the world such hits as ‘Wanksta’, ‘P.I.M.P.’ and �Heat�. I have been a 50 cent fan since 1997 and so when he signed his record deal I …
Album : Accept - Russian Roulette
I love albums that have the simple ability to split band’s fan bases right down the middle for a battle to the death. I guess there is a fair few albums like this across the rock & metal world, but maybe none more so that Russian Roulette from German …
Skylar Grey ft. X Ambassadors - Cannonball (Song )
I have been a casual fan of X Ambassadors ever since their sleeper hit “Renegades” started taking off early this year. In fact if you look at the reviews I made for this very site, then you’ll see that I’ve reviewed “Renegades” too. Side note: I still love that …
2 Pac
2 Pac is probably the best and most famous rapper who ever lived. He is a rap legend who can never be matched by any living rapper. I really admired him because he had deep lyrics that people could relate to. He always has a great sense of passion in …
Pantera Far Beyond Driven
This album was released in 1994 on East west records and produced by Terry Date. The album features a controversial image of a man being drilled into his forehead, the album’s original artwork depicted a person being drilled in the anus and had to be changed to the drillbit …
Sugar by Demure
I came across this song on MySpace and was quite drawn to the singer. She has a tone that kind of reminded me of Amy Winehouse, but without all the gravel in her voice. The song’s lyrics kind of confused me at first. But then …
“Vampire Weekend” by Vampire Weekend
I recently discovered a band by the name of Vampire Weekend. This band’s name may sound strange, but do not let that distract you from the fact that their music is wonderful. They have such a different sound than every other band that is currently on my iPod. There …
Becoming The Archetype Dichotomy
Dichotomy was released in 2008 and produced by Devin Townsend of Strapping Young Lad. The name Dichotomy fits really well as the sound on the album are two opposites merged together, they do this really well, this album is less emotionless then Physics of fire, that was a good …
The Beatles - It’s All Too Much (Song)
It’s All Too Much is a song by The Beatles which appears on their record Yellow Submarine. The track starts off with some guitar distortion, having somewhat of a psychedelic sound, before an organ part also enters in the song which reinforces this psychedelic tone. Once the main rhythm …
The Rolling Stones - New Faces (Song)

The Velvet Underground - Oh Gin (Song)
Oh Gin is a demo by The Velvet Underground which appears on the second disc of their album Loaded. The song starts off with a fairly paced tempo that has a steady rhythm for Reed to come in with the vocals of the track. The lyrics of the song …
She’s Royal (song by, Tarrus Riley)
She’s Royal is the first hit release from Tarrus Riley, a new singer on the reggae scene. This song is such a beautiful and wonderful song. It basically praises the woman he is singing about. It would make any girl feel special.
I personally love this song because the lyrics …
